    The MMORPG.com website is running a voting poll for the most wanted MMO of 2018, Kilsin already posted a thread about it, currently Pantheon is first with 21.6% of the votes but AoC is catching up and it's at 19.2%.

    If you haven't voted yet would be nice if you did, getting the "most wanted MMO" is always a nice bit of publicity for Pantheon :)

    Kilsin posted this up in the announcement section. Unfortunately, atm, Pantheon has dropped to number 2 at 20.8% and Ashes of Creation up at 22.3. Of course, that's before MMORPG goes through the tally to make sure no one has been creating sockpuppet accounts to boost the voting numbers, which did happen last time when Pantheon won last year with the initial number 1 game in a close race. That's not to say that's happening here (AoC certainly has some numbers in the playerbase ready to see it launch), just covering the bases. Both Pantheon and AoC kind of have a claim to the spirit of the next EQ throne with AoC being essentially what EQN would have been and Pantheon being a spiritual successor to the original EQ of sorts.

    We are actually coming second to AoC now as Kratuk said, so we need all the help we can get! We have less than 1 day to get our votes in :D

    I just hope none used dump accounts to increase pantheon's rating, so we remain the same after crunching.

    I'd be very surprised. Our community is better than that. Just bring friends!

    AoC on other hand... I wouldn't put it past them.

    Not willing to start a war between playerbases, but I have some interesting, yet jealous, theories.

    Had never heard of AoC until now...decided to go check it out.  Looks pretty interesting honestly.  Similar ideas to Chronicles of Elyria i think.

    I had never heard of it either. Many similarities to the Pantheon approach but also interesting differences. Kratuk's comparison seems spot-on.

    I have evidence of AoC cheating that I can pass on to MMORPG.com. There's no question about whether or not they cheated. The real question is whether or not the difference is enough to tip the scales.

    The truth will prevail in time.

    Yea.. This AoC vote looks incredibly skewed. Just the same ol bullshit that us EQ Classic (and the like) fans have been dealing with for years. Pantheon looks great. AoC in my opinion looks very, very lame. Lol.
